12Executive Summary of the Continental 2024 Annual Report
As every Sunday, the most important news from the past week, as well as the most important dates for the coming week.
Also as a video:
https://youtube.com/shorts/qddXVLwZJxA?si=fuYDrtqdo6eoQnvb
Monday:
After various announcements, China is apparently getting serious and actually changing its monetary policy, for the first time in 14 years. The central bank is to pursue a looser monetary policy, meaning interest rate cuts to stimulate the economy. Stocks in China and luxury companies are also benefiting from the news.
$CON (-3,99%) Continental is following the path of many suppliers. The tire business (which has a promising future) is being spun off from the traditional supplier business. In this way, Continental is ensuring that the company will survive the end of the combustion engine.
Tuesday:
The company $TMV (-4,26%) Teamviewer is under pressure following the purchase of London-based software specialists 1E. Teamviewer is buying 1E for around 720 million euros, which would be the largest acquisition in the history of the Göppingen-based company. Products from 1E can probably detect and rectify software problems at an early stage. Well-known customers include Adidas, Nike and AT&T.
Inflation in Germany remains above the ECB's 2% target for the time being. According to the HICP, inflation in November was 2.2% compared to the previous year.
Wednesday:
$ZAL (-2,37%) Zalando buys its direct competitor $YOU (+0,53%) About You for 1.1 billion euros. The reason for the consolidation is the growing competition from China, e.g. Shein and Temu. Zalando pays a hefty premium of 65% on the last stock market price.
The Bank of Canada cuts its key interest rate by half a percentage point. This major cut in the prime rate was expected by most experts. The reason for this was poor labor market
Thursday:
The Kiel Institute for the World Economy also expects 0% growth in Germany in 2025. Stefan Kooth, economist and Head of the Forecasting Center at the IfW, is calling for a move away from interventionism in economic policy and for better framework conditions instead. In this context, he takes a positive view of the idea of more Musk and Milei.
The ECB cuts the deposit rate again to 3.0%. This is the fourth rate cut we have seen this year.

Ministry of Justice considers splitting up Google + Varta in rally mode due to contract with Porsche for lithium cells + Deutsche Telekom wants to pay out more money and buy back its own shares + Bayer very weak + Continental very firm
In August, an American federal court ruled that Google $GOOGL (-3,55%) used illegal methods to maintain its monopoly in the online search sector. The consequences of the decision are now under discussion. The US Federal Department of Justice is continuing to discuss a split-up.
The recovery rally that began the previous day at Varta $VAR1 continued on Wednesday due to encouraging news. The share price had already risen by more than 29 percent on Tuesday and now there was a further jump of 79 percent on Wednesday. Most recently, the shares of the battery manufacturer, which had got into difficulties, cost 3.40 euros. Varta had announced the signing of a contract with the sports car manufacturer Porsche AG $P911 (+0,06%) regarding an investment in the field of large-format lithium-ion cells. According to a statement on Wednesday, the company agreed with its customer Porsche on a majority stake in the Varta subsidiary V4Drive Battery GmbH. A capital increase is to be carried out at the subsidiary in order to implement the investment. Varta had already announced on Monday that key agreements had been concluded with financiers and investors, marking a further milestone in its restructuring concept. Short-term bridge financing was also announced on Monday.
The Deutsche Telekom $DTE (+0,36%) intends to pay out a higher dividend to its shareholders for the current year than expected. The payout is to rise from 77 cents in the previous year to 90 cents per share, the DAX-listed company announced before an investor event in Bonn on Thursday. Analysts had expected slightly less on average. The dividend proposal still has to be confirmed at the Annual General Meeting. Deutsche Telekom also announced share buybacks of up to two billion euros for 2025. The Board of Management will then present its targets for the coming years on Thursday and Friday.
Bayer $BAYN (+0%) fell by 6.8 percent following a decision by the Supreme Court in the US state of Washington to reopen a lawsuit concerning the long-term health effects of the chemical PCB. Bayer had received a favorable decision in the lower court as recently as May, when an appeals court overturned a first-instance decision due to errors. Compensatory and punitive damages totaling USD 185 million, which three teachers at a school in the greater Seattle area had won before a jury in 2021, were awarded.
Continental $CON (-3,99%) on the other hand, gained 7.2 percent. The automotive supplier is likely to achieve the majority of the positive effects from outstanding price negotiations in the third quarter, as it told analysts. "The statements are being interpreted to mean that the third quarter went somewhat better than feared," said one market participant.

2nd Devon Energy buys Validus for $1.8 billion
Shale oil producer Devon Energy (DVN.N) announced Tuesday that it will buy Validus Energy, an operator in the Eagle Ford Basin, for $1.8 billion.
The deal comes at a time when oil producers are benefiting massively from a surge in oil and gas prices as sanctions against major producer Russia following its invasion of Ukraine curb supply amid a rebound in demand.
Hedge fund Elliott Management invested in Validus last year to help the company acquire assets in Eagle Ford, Texas, from Ovintiv Inc for $880 million.

One of the big German companies that hasn't been able to get off the ground in recent years.
Over a 5-year period, the share is down almost 60%.
How do you plan to get out of this slump? With the now universally propagated panacea of splitting up.
The large Continental AG could become four independent companies:
1️⃣ Conti Tires
2️⃣ Conti Automotive
3️⃣ Conti Tech
4️⃣ Conti Autonomous Driving
So once again hidden assets are to be lifted. Once again, the story of the speedboats is propagated, which can act much faster independently and are more maneuverable.
The example of Siemens has shown that this can work. However, it is en vogue everywhere to play this management phrase. While the declared goal for many decades was to create large conglomerates, we are currently experiencing the opposite everywhere. It will be interesting to see whether things go in the other direction again in 20 years.
For me personally, such considerations as those made by Continental are no reason to invest. I would much rather see what the plans for the future of a company look like. In my opinion, very little comes from the management.

General Electrics ($GCP (-5,79%)) - One of the largest companies in the United States announced it would split into three publicly traded individual companies. These companies will then focus on the "Aviation", "Health Care" and "Energy" industries. Wall Street analysts are in favor of the company's plan. This could enable GE to escape from the astonishingly weak performance of the last two decades.
Tesla ($TL0 (-3,59%)) - Elon Musk's brother, Kimbal Musk (pictured right), sold Tesla shares shortly before his brother's Twitter poll. As previously reported, Elon Musk had a vote on the sale of ten percent of his Tesla shares via Twitter. The majority of his followers were in favor of a sale. As a result, the Tesla share price temporarily plummeted to just under 880 euros. Now Elon Musk could again find himself confronted with the U.S. supervisory authority SEC as a result of his market-moving tweets. In addition, publicly viewable SEC forms show that Kendal Musk, who is also a Tesla supervisory board member, apparently sold off his Tesla shares before the survey. He exercised an option to buy 25,000 Tesla shares at $74.17 apiece and sold them right back for prices between $1,223 and $1,236. Thus, he made a profit of $108.8 million. It remains unclear whether he knew about his brother's upcoming Twitter poll.
𝗖𝗿𝘆𝗽𝘁𝗼 💎
ING Group ($INN1 (-4,76%)) - ING's CIO, Annerie Vreugdenhil, announced at the Singapour FinTech Festival that the bank with the orange lion and the ad featuring Dirk Nowitzki is currently working on a DeFi (Decentralised Finance) P2P lending project. It is doing this in cooperation with the Dutch financial regulator AFM. The big bank's ambition to become part of the crypto world became known at the latest through the whitepaper they published in early 2021 about the ways in which banks can learn from what is happening in the crypto space. As a strong collaborative partner, ING cited Aave ($AAVE/EUR (-2,26%)) - a project that offers interest on over-collateralized crypto assets without the need for an intermediary.
Apple ($APC (-6,25%)) - The tech giant's CEO stated in the past day that he personally holds cryptocurrency, specifically Ethereum and Bitcoin. However, according to his statements, the Apple company does not currently plan to invest in cryptocurrencies.
